Reflection on the three weeks:             

 Advances in technology have led to the birth of many new methods of electronic communication, such as social networking websites, instant messages and emails. The increase of electronic communication has helped to eliminate time and distance as obstacles to communication. This has been beneficial to many parts of society, including , education. Computer-mediated communication also helps to make research more convenient for us.
 We are beginning to see lectures in the form of online videos as well as using  Twitter ,wiki, blog  and Facebook as platforms to discuss and share materials from the classroom.
In this course Edu401  we start to create account in many sites like yahoo group ,blog, wiki space  and delicious. I find it very interesting ,sharing experiences and gaining information.                    during my academic study I am using online wiki  to learning and search  due to this site content richer of  info,  also I have my site  on facebook to connect with other classmate. In addition, we can used  Skype to improve language skills by communicating with foreigners through internet calls.
Thus, the technology plays a big part in facilitating the future of learning.
